Everyone at GoWeb99, especially Tony, Nicholas, and David has been so helpful and such a great pleasure to work with! I have called them dozens of times with many requests and changes and each time, whoever I spoke with was friendly and patient. Everything I asked for was done quickly and accurately. I love my new web site and I plan to do more work with GoWeb99 in the future. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a web site at a reasonable price.

Nicholas Taylor at goweb99 was just W O N D E R F U L !! He was patient with my many changes and corrections, and “held my hand” through the entire process. As this was my first experience with web designing, the support, suggestions, and professional eloquence shown by Nicholas made me feel confident, trusting, and “in good hands”. I highly recommend Nicholas Taylor, and his fine company to anyone who is looking for an EXCELLENT Web Design source! My site is just beautiful, and should bring my New England “Bed and Breakfast” many new visitors.

If the property has a standout feature, market it. Properties that have special built-in features that stands out from competitors. Teaming up with other business proprietors to offer special offers, discounts, home delivery, phone service, maid service or providing special Spa or yoga packages could work well. Include this information with all communications about the property to help develop a reputation for this service or feature.
Finally one place to seek more detailed information can be in your personal Website where you have the same general information which includes:
- Photo of the outside, nearby attractions.
- A clear snapshot of the interior and amenities.
- Property address and general location (five minutes from Disney World)
- Reservation information (Avail 30% discount on advance booking)
- Contact phone number/s and auto email responder.
- Extra services (Free pick-up and a welcome drink etc)
You never get a second chance to make the first impression. The key is to excite the customer with pictures, description and features within a few seconds. Give enough information to grab the attention and interest of the reader.
There are inexpensive ways to get a vacation rental online. Just a listing service like VRBO or TravelEhome is not advisable as potential vacation seekers will look at the property details where all your competitors are also listed. Having a personal website link on the professional listing service website is a good way to stand out from your competitors and it also shows about your professionalism, seriousness about the business and also you can display everything about your property in detail to the vacationers. A dependable company like GoWeb99.com provides a very professional and low cost solution (starting as low as $99) as per your need and requirements like colour combination, features etc unlike others where you will have to do the tedious job by yourself. The low monthly prices are offered on everything needed to get a website up and running like domain name, support, maintenance and hosting for as low as $4.99 per month. Armed with a few pictures, basic description content with rates and amenities, a website can be quickly created in couple of days. If you already have a website and looking for redesigning it at minimal cost you can Visit www.goweb99.com for more information.
Tip: Useful features on your site such as online booking or availability calendar and Blog can also be a good option, visit www.goweb99.com for their contact information.
Place brochures where visitors generally visit during their trip to town. Local restaurants, shops and public areas often have brochure holders specifically to provide useful information to tourists.
Invite local residents to see the inside of the rental property and your hospitality. If possible offer some water, coffee and snacks to every visitor so they feel comfortable and relaxed. Try to have a general, polite and courteous conversation with every person that walks through the door. Without worrying about the few who will just seek out the free food and try to leave, many will be happy and excited to tell their friends and relatives about the property and courteous owner.
Have something for visitors to take with them, such as a simple postcard that contains information about the property and your contact details. Try to gather their contact information which might of great help in future.
All e-mails are capable of attaching a small amount of information by default to the end of every e-mail sent, called an e-mail signature. By taking advantage of this simple feature you can advertise to people without spending anything.
Keep the information short and simple, such as “A luxury Beachfront Vacation Rental in Kissimmee, Florida” followed by a link of your website and phone number. DONOT enter listing service (VRBO etc) link in your email where all your nearby competitors are also listed. Instead always add your personal website name.
Creating a posting on free directories like CraigsList is simple (Choose city > create posting > housing offered > vacation rental). Along with your destination city also try posting to the nearby cities. In addition, if the vacation rental is in a location that would have widespread appeal, such as Kissimmee, consider posting to major cities nationwide.
Include maximum photos of the interior & exterior of the property and also some pictures of nearby attractions of the property so viewers can get the look and feel of the property and spend extra time looking at the listing.

Tony, thank you for all your help putting together our Hawaii vacation rental site. It was a pleasure working with you. You were very courteous and helpful and got back to me quickly even with a time zone difference. You made making changes very easy. All the tech support at goweb99.com were great to work with and very professional.

Nicholas, I am writing this letter to thank you for the wonderful job you did, putting together my Shuswap Lake Vacation Cabin Rental website.
You were always available and eager to help when I called to make changes to the site. You allowed me to place lots of pictures on my site, and worked with me to find a way to advertise my second vacation rental there.
I was as impressed with your pleasant manner and diligent work ethic, as with your availability and persistance to get the site up in a timely and efficient manner.
It has been a pleasant experience working with you on this endeavour, and I am happy with the result. I will recommend you and GoWeb99.com to anyone wishing a Vacation Rental Website.
I appreciate your offer to continue to make modifications (i.e. change pictures and information), as the need arises.

“Thank-you for making the set up of our website such a simple & enjoyable process. I was skeptical at first, but Goweb99 made the entire experience a very straightforward, economical step to increasing our exposure on the web. We had been putting off creating our own site for some time until GoWeb99 contacted us & walked us through the web design process. We are very happy with the final product & the service we received from you & look forward to a long lasting business partnership with you in the future.”

I want to congratulate you and your company for providing excellent service in building a website for me despite us being 12,000 miles away and opposite ends of the clock. Nicholas was very diligent, conscientious and politely persistent despite working with a computer novice. The resulting site is great. I will be in touch on another site very shortly.
Many thanks
